To all 'whom it may concern.

Be it known that I, JOHN W. FLoRY, a citizen of the United States, residing at Dayton, in the county of Montgomery and State of Ohio, haveinvented certain new and usefull Iin )rovemcnts in Firelessl Cookers; and I do declare the following to be a full, clear, and exact description of the invention, such as will enable others skilled in the art to which it appertains to make and use the same, reference being had to the accompanying drawlings, and to the letters and figures ofreferthis specification.

This invention relates tonew and useful ence marked thereon, which form a part ot' `improvements in tireless cookers.

Theobject of the invention is to provide a .cover for a device of this character which will effectually retain the heat on the inside of the receptacle, as hereinafter setforth in the specification and in the subjoined claims.

In the accompanying drawings, Figure 1, is a top plan view of my device, the exterior and .interior covers being broken away. Fig. view through the top of through the top of the device on one side,

showing the inner cover elevated from its In a detailed description of the invention,

similar reference characters indicate corresponding parts.

The body of the utensil may bc circular or oval, and consists of an outer casing 1 and an inner casing 2 suitably spaced to provide a Asupply of insulating material 1. The inner casing 2 is adapted to hold the various foods to be cooked after said food has been given a proper amountof initial heat. At the top of the utensil so consisting of the casmgs .1 and 2, is a horizontal wall which joins the outer and inner casings 1 and Zand-forms the top closure for the space which contains the heatinsulating material 1. This seat-insulating lip @which engages the upperg'edge of lthe casing 2 and issupported thereon. The rmgl 5 supports a heat-radiating member 7 at the I IVithin the casing 2 is a flanged ring 5 provided with a described, is provided with mouth of the vessel. f

The cover for the interior of the vessel consists of two suitably-formed metallic plates 8 which inclose between thema supply of heat-insulating material 8', such as asbestos or .the like. -The cover so formed -has an inner inclined or tapered seat 9 which matches the seat 4 of the inner casing 2, and extending from the lower terminal of said tapered portion 9, is a horizontal portion S 4 which matches the horizontal wall 3 lying between the outer and inner'casings 1 and 2. When the seats llf'and 9 and the extended port-ion 8 of the cover engage, there is a valve-like connection between thc coverand the mouth of the vessel which eifectually prevents the escape of the heat from the 'interior ofthe vessel. The central portion of the cover 8 is' provided with a housing 1l open at the bottom and sea-ting witlrin which is a valveL 15- normally heldon its seat by meansof a. spring above it.' `In the event that the heat within the vessel or utensil reaches an undesirable point, the valve 15 affords an outlet tor such excessive. heat. The cover so consisting of the features thus eyes l0 affording means for removing the cover.

1l designates an outer cover which incloses the inner cover with its down-turned rim inclosing the upper end of the. outer casing 1 by means of a ba r .12 provided with Va handle 13. The' said bar 12 is engaged at its end by cleats 16 attached to the outer casing 1. The entire .utensil may be conveyed by the handle 13 when the b ar 12 engages said cleats.

Havmg described my invention, I claim: .1. In a tireless cooker, an lnner and, outer 'casing iclosing between them heatfil'isulating material, said inner and outer casings being joined near their upper ends with a horizontal wall, and the inner casing being extended upwardly and terminating in'an outward inclined seat which joins saidnhorizontal wall, and a cover consisting of two metallic portions inclosing heat-insulating material, the inner portion of said cover ha\- ing a tapered seat with a horizontal' extension therefrom, said tapered seat and horizontal extension being adapted to engage the tapered seat extending from 4the inner casing, and the horizontal wall joining said inner and outencasings, substantially as specified.

S and is clamped in position.
